Three weeks ago, Mark Roberts had a pretty good week. Then he went on vacation, forcing us — coupled with my 1,028 other duties — to get back-logged on these awards.

But the fleet-skiing Wilton High School senior certainly deserves his Warrior Nation Sports Blog/Trackside Teen Center's Athlete of the Week award for the week ending Feb. 19.

All Roberts did that week was win yet another ski race at Mount Southington, which helped the Warriors finish the year undefeated against Class S competition, but he also qualified for the Team Connecticut Ski Team, as well.

In addition to his WNSB/Trackside Teen Center t-shirt, all winners of the award also receive lunch for two at the Trackside Teen Center's deli, free admission for two to any high school event sponsored by Trackside and their photo posted on Trackside's Warrior Wall of Fame for the rest of the school year.
